A L. Biake Lying in q Critical Condition
at Chicago.
CHICAGO, May 21.-A distinguished look
ing old man, dressed in fashionable cut
garments and carrying Russian leather
travelling bag, was acting SO queerly on
Harrison street bridge late yesterday even
ing that policeman on duty there led him
to the Armory Police Station. The city
physician said he was insane. and he was
then taken to the insane ward of the
county Jail. He was seemingly conscious,
though he was not able to speak accu-
rately. A letter was found in his pocket,
signed by A. w. Bosh. OF Port Tow nsend,
Washington Territory, introducing the
bearer to United States Senator Dolph, of
Oregon, at present in w Washington. Thelet'er
him A. L. Blake, ex-Deputy Col
lector of Customs at Port Townsend.
It said that Blake had
recently been discharged by Collector of
Customs Beecher, of Port Townsend, and
that he went to Washington for the pur
pose of preferring charges against Beecher.
Besides usual travelling equipments the
valise contained a mass OF papers and cor
neatly arranged and setting
[orth his case against Collector Beecher.
Blake sank into q stupor this morning
rom which he cannot be aroused. He is
evidently dying. The doctor says it is a
peculiar case, that he may be suffering from
partial paralysis caused either by concus-
sion from fall or the bursting of q blood
vessel.

Rearrangement OF Revenue Districts.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-The President is
sued an order to-day changing and con-
solidating number of Internal Revenue
Districts throughout the country. The
State of Nevada is consolidated with the
Fourth District OF California. The Terri
tory of Utah is added to the District Of
Montana. Under this order of reorganiza-
ton the number Of districts will be abol-
lshed and collectors there retired from
service among the districts OF Nevada.
Commissioner Miller says that the new ar
rangement of the districts will not interfere
with the taxpayer and will save to the
Government more than one hundred thou
sand dollars annually. 1t is said
to be the intention to require such collec-
tors as are occupying rented offices to re-
move to Government buildings in all cases
where it Is practicable, and it is also prob
able that other changes will be made which
will insure still greater economy and eff
cheney in the management OF this branch of
the Government service The order OF con-
sideration was carefully considered and
was agreed upon by the President and the
Secretary OF the Treasury and Commits
sioner OF Internal Revenue.

No WONDER HER HEAD ACmsp-Couders-
port. Pa, March S.-For two years past Annie
Schlcltbergcr, little girl living with her
grandparents in this village, had almost con-
stantly complained Of pains i'll her heal, which
at times were so intense that sho was almost
crazcl. Blood poured from her nose frequently.
Physicians both here and elsewhere were called
TO treat the child, but they could give her no
relief, and we're unable TO tell what was the
cause Of her trouble.
On Wednesday night she seemed worse than
usual and her shrieks could be hoard on the
street. About midnight the little girl cried out
to her grandmothcr 10 come TO her and see
what YVES crawling out of her ear. Mrs
Schieldbcrger ran to the chids bed, and by
the light of her lamp saw Il hidcous looking
worm resembling housand-lcggei worm
coming out of the childs ear. The old lady
was 50 fearful that the worm would draw back
again that she seized pair of scissors and cut
1t IN two. That portion that was still in the
car drew back, aud the other fell OH the bed

Court Proceedings.

The Court of Sessions was closed Thursday.
The most important tried in that Court
was the State rs George W. Fowler, white, for
assault and battery with intent to kill. aud the
State as Ike Moorman, for arson, in burning
Mr. Crosbys gin house.
The defendant in each Of these cases was
represented by Maj. d. \. Townsend and |. G,
McKi,sck and who managed their snsas with
consummatc skill. Fowler was acquitted, as re-
ported last week.
In the case of Ike Norman, colorcl, FIR ar
son, those who heard the trial accord to the
counsel for the defense, the highest praise for
the skiful aud stubborn fight they made for
their client. The crime committed in one
OF the wcathiest and most intelligent neghbor-
hcoIs Of this county, and neither time in
vcsrigntion was spared to find tho guilty party.
1t is natural and cmincntly proper at all times
that the pcrpctrator of every such heinous
crime should be found and male to suifor the
| scvcrcst punishment Of the law, and the prose
cutors i'll this case did only what was their
bounden duty to themselves and fe!!oweitizens,
in bringing the suspected speedily to the bar of
justice, and by every thruthful means convict
worst.
Splictor Duncan, with all his ability, did his
full duty in this case, but he 'met foemen
worthy of his stccll," in Mcssrs To wnscnd and
McEissick, although Col. Mckissick too
| unwcll to take his usually active part in such
cases
The effort Of Mnj. Townsand before the jury
| is universally conceded to have been the finest
| tha, has been delivered at this bar for many
years, and created profound Impression upon
| all who heard it. Exhaustive in argument,
profound in logic and eloquent in appeal, it
| stamped Mai. Townsend as one of the most
effective Jury Baristcrs in the State.
| Notwithstanding the great ctfyrt made to
save Norman, the jury found him guilty, but
re commented him to the mercy Of the Court,
aud the Judge sentenced him to ten years in
tlc pcnitcn;iary at hard labor.
The Court of Common Pleas adjourned 1T
| noon on Wednesday.
